Sandoval Snaps Over Scheana Playing Scandoval ‘Victim’

Tom Sandoval has had enough of Scheana Shay and what he perceives as her victim mentality.

On the April 23 episode of Vanderpump Rules, the Schwartz & Sandy’s co-owner, 41, confronted Scheana, 38, about making Scandoval all about her.

After she released a song which references his headline-making affair with Rachel “Raquel” Leviss, he told her, “It’s been a lot. You know, it’s not really about the song necessarily. It’s more about from you specifically, it’s been a lot.” 

Despite saying she understood his feelings, she still defended her decisions and explained, “I was coming at that from what you two did to Ariana, it f—ed me up in more ways than one.” She added that she ultimately decided to “capitalize” on the experience.

However, Sandoval saw her actions in a different light. He told her that she was “100 times more reactive” than his ex Ariana Madix.

As the argument continued, he finally reached his breaking point and said, “Scheana, I need you to understand something: you were not involved in this [scandal]. You did not get cheated on, [Rachel] did not f— Brock.” 

Scheana was quick to remind him that Rachel, 29, filed a “motherf—ing restraining order” against her after claiming Scheana punched her during an argument on March 2, 2023. (The order was later dismissed and Scheana has consistently denied the accusations.)

Sandoval still insisted that Scheana was putting herself in the middle of the situation, asking, “Why are you acting like you’re the biggest victim in this whole scenario?”  

After Scheana’s husband Brock Davies stepped in to defend her and pointed out that Sandoval does the same thing by singing about his pal Tom Schwartz and Rachel, Sandoval clarified, “It’s not even remotely close. You guys are acting more entitled to talk about events in my life than me.”

He then claimed Scheana “inserted” herself into this situation but she argued that he’s not seeing the toll of the affair on her. 

“Do you know that I know have f—ed up thoughts about Brock and Lala [Kent], one of my best friends, because I’m like, ‘Oh my god, can someone do that to me because they did it to her?’” she revealed.

Before she could leave, Sandoval threw one last blow at her. He reminded her that she’s been the “other woman” in a relationship, which prompted her to respond, “F— you, Tom. When I was 21 years old in 2006!”

Her husband then added, “She was in her twenties, bro. You’re f—ing 40!”

After leaving the group shocked, Ariana told Scheana, “He’s f—ing trash, honey. I love you so much.”

Scheana and Sandoval’s argument came after he felt betrayed on last week’s episode when Scheana told him that she had written a song alluding to his affair. She argued the track was “open to interpretation” but “there’s one [line] where it says: ‘From a Ferrari to Jetta, thought that you knew better. You went from something gold to something not and you could do better.'”

Sandoval shared, “I feel like Scheana and I have really come a long way. We’re really starting to become friends again and then it’s like, go profit off my pain. It’s just like Tom is going to collateral damage in this, I don’t give a s—. I gotta put my track out. If Scheana was really caring about mending things, she wouldn’t have done this.”
